[PoE 2] Burning the Endgame with my Pet Elephant ~ Build Showcase

Tavsif:

Here’s an endgame showcase of my decently min/maxed Lowlife Companion RF Lich Summoner. This is my take on Oscrix’s build, refined with a few new tricks and tech for SC. The core of the setup is an Elephant‑Tortoise Companion, turned into a walking inferno with Infernal Legion, igniting and melting everything in range. The Elephant is the “new” highest‑hp tameable and somewhat farmable beast we can get currently. To scale the damage further, the priority is simple: stack as much minion life and gem levels as possible. The higher its HP, the stronger the base damage of the ignite. I didn’t want to rely on the Spectre weapon swap bug for clearing, so this build stays much closer to Oscrix’s original Dinomancer (0.2) — just with a few new twists. I still use weapon swap to reposition the Companion or prompt it to walk/run when needed, but far less often than with the Crested Behemoth or Bogfelled Commoners. I suggest checking out Oscrix’s original Dinomancer; it pretty much explains everything you need to know if you have no clue what you are looking at. The new scaling tech – Damage Scaling (TL;DR): Extra Fire Damage directly scales the Ignite from Infernal Legion. % of Damage as Extra Cold/Lightning/Chaos also works when paired with Bringer of Flames or mods like “All Damage Ignites” on Rare Monsters. I’m using the Lineage Support Xoph’s Pyre to enable Chaos damage to ignite, combined with Unholy Might and a beast that has “Extra Chaos Damage” + “Extra Fire Damage.” Further scaling is possible with Evergrasping Rings. Crit might also be a thing. Xoph’s Pyre + Unholy Might + Evergrasping Rings can also be used for Bogfelled Commoner Spectres. Defenses: Hybrid ES/Evasion setup on a Lich for strong layering. Shavronne’s Satchel + Ghost Dance provide consistent recovery and sustain. Blasphemy Temp Chains. Forced low life state to leverage low life mods: stronger flask healing, Defiance for scaling evasion (Megalomaniac), increased movement speed (when on low life). Where to farm the Beast: find/bookmark “Azmerian Ranges”, it is the only map with guaranteed Elephant spawns. Buy waystones with “Rares have 1 additional Modifier”. Run it but never complete it, always leave one Rare alive. Rinse and repeat. Timestamps: 0:00 Xesht 0:23 Arbiter 1:06 Sim 15 (max diff) 1:49 random mapping snippets 7:59 Full Deli Abyss Map
